About This Guitar
Martin D-18 Authentic 1939 NOS #2291229
This guitar just arrived to my showroom in April 2024. The serial number puts it at early 2019 produciton. I cannot even speculate why it just arrived other than it was sitting in the repair department for some reason... just sitting there for years.. ?? It is clean as a whilstle and has not been on the showroom floor.
This guitar is spectacular. It has some of the best Mahogany I've ever seen. Check out all the figuring!
